Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unter Kaiser Menelik II. kam es im Fruhjahr 1905 zur Entsendung einer deutschen Delegation und zum Abschluss eines Freundschafts- und Handelsvertrages. Menelik II. suchte Schutz gegen drohende Ubergriffe europaischer Kolonialmachte. Durch die beiden Weltkriege wurden die diplomatischen Beziehungen unterbrochen, aber schon im Jahre 1954 kam Kaiser Haile Selassie I. nach Deutschland. In den 80er Jahren begann die Bundesrepublik sich von der alten Hallstein-Doktrien zu losen und besonders Athiopien, den Sitz der Afrikanischen Union, in ein neues System der Entwicklungspolitik zu integrieren. Die entstandenen politischen Schwierigkeiten konnten nach 1991 im Wesentlichen aberwunden werden. Under the reign of Menelik II. a German diplomatic mission under professor Friedrich Rosen was sent to Ethiopia and concluded a treaty of commerce and friendship. The emperor wanted to be more protected against the European colonial powers. Worldwar I & II interrupted the friendly and economic relations between the two countries. However already in 1954 emperor Haile Selassie I. paid an official visit to Germany. Starting with the 80'es Germany by and by got rid of the traditional Hallstein-Doktrin and tried to include Ethiopia, where the African Union had its headquarters, into the new political African policy. Political problems, which had developed under the Rule of Mengistu, were overcome after 1991.
Download or read book The Life and Times of L j Iyasu of Ethiopia written by Éloi Ficquet and published by LIT Verlag Münster. This book was released on 2014 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One hundred years ago, from 1910 to 1916 the young prince Lij Iyasu (1897-1936) assumed power as the uncrowned emperor of Ethiopia. However, he was overthrown by an alliance of oligarchs led by the future emperor Hayle Sillase. The short reign of Iyasu, disrupted by fierce inner competitions in the international context of World War I, has remained obscure, even to specialized researchers. Yet, over the past two decades, new sources have been uncovered, allowing for new questions and searching for new answers. This book assembles diverse perspectives on Lij Iyasu's politics and life, his 'pluralistic' and controversial religious inclinations, and his international relations.

Download or read book Photos as Historical Witnesses written by Wolbert G.C. Smidt and published by LIT Verlag Münster. This book was released on 2015 with total page 133 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Historically speaking, Ethiopians traveled to Germany at a surprisingly early time period. Examples include Abba Gorgoryos, the co-founder of Ethiopian Studies in Germany, who resided in Gotha in 1652, or former Oromo slaves in the early 19th century. Germans also migrated to Ethiopia, whose Ethiopian-German descendents sometimes played an important role in cultural exchange, politics, and diplomacy over generations. As a result of many years of research, this book presents historical images and texts documenting the history of German-Ethiopian relations. Capturing crucial historical moments, some of the research material in this book is previously unknown to historians.

Download or read book Friedrich Rosen written by Amir Theilhaber and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2020-09-07 with total page 614 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The German lacuna in Edward Said’s 'Orientalism' has produced varied studies of German cultural and academic Orientalisms. So far the domains of German politics and scholarship have not been conflated to probe the central power/knowledge nexus of Said’s argument. Seeking to fill this gap, the diplomatic career and scholarly-literary productions of the centrally placed Friedrich Rosen serve as a focal point to investigate how politics influenced knowledge generated about the “Orient” and charts the roles knowledge played in political decision-making regarding extra-European regions. This is pursued through analyses of Germans in British imperialist contexts, cultures of lowly diplomatic encounters in Middle Eastern cities, Persian poetry in translation, prestigious Orientalist congresses in northern climes, leveraging knowledge in high-stakes diplomatic encounters, and the making of Germany’s Islam policy up to the Great War. Politics drew on bodies of knowledge and could promote or hinder scholarship. Yet, scholars never systemically followed empire in its tracks but sought their own paths to cognition. On their own terms or influenced by “Oriental” savants they aligned with politics or challenged claims to conquest and rule.

Download or read book The First World War from Tripoli to Addis Ababa 1911 1924 written by Collectif and published by . This book was released on 2018-10-08 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For a long time now it has been common understanding that Africa played only a marginal role in the First World War. Its reduced theatre of operations appeared irrelevant to the strategic balance of the major powers. This volume is a contribution to the growing body of historical literature that explores the global and social history of the First World War. It questions the supposedly marginal role of Africa during the Great War with a special focus on Northeast Africa. In fact, between 1911 and 1924 a series of influential political and social upheavals took place in the vast expanse between Tripoli and Addis Ababa. The First World War was to profoundly change the local balance of power. This volume consists of fifteen chapters divided into three sections. The essays examine the social, political and operational course of the war and assess its consequences in a region straddling Africa and the Middle East. The relationship between local events and global processes is explored, together with the regional protagonists and their agency. Contrary to the myth still prevailing, the First World War did have both immediate and long-term effects on the region. This book highlights some of the significant aspects associated with it.

This book was released on 2017-04-30 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With many OECD countries experiencing a decline in their populations, this book offers a theoretical model of coping with demographic change and examines different strategies that societies have used to come to terms with demographic change. In particular, it details the different ways that Germany and Poland have tried to cope with this challenge and reveals three conflicting strategies: expansion, reduction, and phasing out. Coverage includes: · How and why demographic change was used in Poland to expand the education system · The variance of linkage between demographic change and growth rates in different fields of education in a German Bundesland · Modes of reflexivity and personnel policy in German and Polish municipalities · Effects of demographic change and forms of coping on fiscal capacity and unemployment rates in German municipalities Coping with Demographic Change examines how and why societies cope with these detrimental effects. It conceptualizes the challenges a society faces as a result of demographic change and focuses on the processes by which actors, organizations and nation-states try to cope with this new situation.
